Martin, 20, was rejected for more than 40 jobs and left feeling worthless, an inquest heard last month.
His dad, also Martin, told the Mirror they were talking about becoming a family gardening team at the time he took his own life.

Mr Hadfield said: “We were both unemployed so we sat down together in front of the computer and produced a CV.
“We talked about doing landscaping together, setting up as father and son.”

He said his boy, from Tottington, Greater Manchester, was left “broken” by the “arrogant” Government after looking for work
for so long but finding none. “When he said he would do any job, he meant any job. "But if you are a square peg and don’t fit in that round hole you get hammered in or abandoned and who cares if some people get broken
?”

Martin, 50, is now doing a solo 130-mile trek across Scotland to raise money and awareness for men’s mental health
charity CALM. The former soldier has been training for the walk that will take him from Blairgowrie to Burghead next month. He added: “I’m raising money for CALM in order to prevent other
youngsters committing suicide and family members going through what we
have.
"They have a help line to support men.”To sponsor Martin find his page atjustgiving.com/remember/104839/Martin-Hadfield or text MARH92 and the amount to 70070

About Me

After gaining a degree as a mature student, I worked professionally delivering community film and music workshops until 2009, when my illness deteriorated and I had to give up work. After reading '21st Century Welfare' a year later, I knew that it would have serious implications for the poor ill and vulnerable. Consequently, I've commented extensively on various sites about these issues, and eventually decided to write my own blog.
I was an artist, and even though I'm ill, I was sometimes able to continue – albeit with great difficulty – to compose music, songs, write, and paint, but the fear of what is about to happen to my life due to welfare reform sapped my creativity; the only thing I had left. So I decided to link to my portfolio here, and to see whether I could be 'reformed' in terms of my art; I will share the details of that journey on this site.
